Software
To enhance the accessibility of this toolkit, a software tool is in development that enables users to design a novel PNC to their own specifications based on suggested parts for their intended application. Standardized protocols will accompany the pre-designed toolkit parts and, together with the simplified design, less experienced users will be able to safely conduct complex experiments in a basic laboratory environment.

Developed for our toolkit with advice from PHAC (Public Health Agency of Canada) and members of ELBI (Emerging Leaders in Biosecurity Initiative)
Cell-free Synthesis Components
- 15 parts improved from our Next Vivo project.
- Our goal with these parts was to continue standardizing, improving and simplifying our protocols.
- Beginning design of Cell Free PNC Synthesis.
